Greene County, Georgia

Greene County is the local county government for an east-central Georgia jurisdiction whose seat is Greensboro. Its Board of Commissioners sets county policy, while a county manager and departments administer day-to-day services for residents and businesses. Those services span roads, planning and zoning, recreation, emergency management, public safety and other county functions. Separately elected county offices carry out duties such as law enforcement, taxation and elections under Georgia law. The county serves communities around Greensboro as well as rural areas, balancing development near Lake Oconee with the needs of longstanding agricultural and small-town communities.
